This cafe is really cute aesthetically but the food & service were both just okay. This was conveniently located near where we were staying which is why we stopped in, but you can definitely find better breakfast food elsewhere. I had a toast dish with a runny egg & minced meat -- it was standard. Nothing mindblowing! The service was pretty slow even when the cafe wasn't busy. The workers were just chilling behind the bar counter which is...not ideal. Maybe I went on an off day, but I didn't return even though I was in Sydney for a week & the location was convenient!

This was the first restaurant I went to in Sydney! I arrived pretty early, so I couldn't check in, so this place was recommended for breakfast. I had a pretty big luggage, but this place was accommodating. I ordered the tiger breakfast - toast, tomato, bacon, sausage, mushrooms, hashbrown, and 2 eggs any way you like it. I opted to have my eggs over medium, and they were practically over hard! That was disappointing, but the rest of my meal was delicious! Everything was very high quality and fresh! My waitress was very nice and constantly checked on me. read more

A cute little oasis of greenery on Victoria st, this is the perfect place to enjoy the afternoon sun on a winter's day. Having not eaten breakfast yet, I chose the ricotta hotcakes off the all day breakfast menu. The serve was smaller than expected, but very filling and well presented, with a nice combination of tastes and not too dry. Service was friendly and prompt, with the cafe being moderately busy. The $1 charge for paying by card is cheeky, which ended a lovely meal on a bit of a sour note. read more

Tigerbakers - Bars Near Me - Darlinghurst, NSW

A funky and cosy den, Tigerbakers has a nice relaxed atmosphere and is a good spot to enjoy a quiet early morning coffee or breakfast on one of the tables outside. The location is great, perched on the Victoria Road cafe strip, where Darlinghurst meets the Cross, this is a must-visit cafe that's a hit with locals by day and night. I like it here mid week for early morning cappuccino and BLT ($9.90), a seat outside is essential to gaze at the colourful street traffic and enjoy the early morning buzz that always surround the Darlo/Kings Cross area. Good value breakfast options are available: Poached or fried eggs on toast ($7.90), Salmon Benedict (14.90), Ricotta Hotcakes with marscapone, golden syrup and berry compote (13.90), or if you're hungry the Jumbo Breakfast with eggs, bacon, sausage, tomato, mushrooms, hash brown and toast (14.50). read more

Tigerbakers - Bars Near Me - Darlinghurst, NSW

This is a fast paced café...or at least is was when I was there. The other cafe's and breakfast places were all packed up, but I was able to find a seat at the counter here. The menu is pretty decent, with some eclectic type meals. I ordered a breakfast burrito which was a bit spicy but very good. The coffee is also excellent here. There is cozy seating inside, reminisce of a quaint café that also serves food. The seating outside is also very open and social. The staff is very friendly and efficient. Remember to grab a menu and order from the counter. One thing I learned about most places in Australia is that you order from a counter, not always by wait staff. I'd like to come by this place for lunch or dinner sometime to see how good of a date place this would be. This place is located very close to the epicenter of "King's Cross". Definitely check it out! read more

This small time Newcastle gal was a little star struck over breakfast today. Thinking her brothers body language was him using one of the cafe mirrors to perv on another diner when in actual fact he was trying very subtly to point out Hugo Weaving. So that was a major plus for me! The cafe itself is very cosy, almost cramped but people seemed respectful of space with us sharing a table with other diners with no awkward elbow nudges or struggle to hear our own chit chat. I ordered the hot cakes served with mascarpone, berry sauce and syrup. The serving was smaller than expected but the hot cakes were warm and fluffy. My partners tiger breakfast was a decent 'big breakfast' and my brothers savoury pikelets (salmon, dill) served with poached eggs were a light but flavour some option. We were seated quickly with drink orders taken straight away and our meals arriving after a short wait. read more

Stumbled upon this place my first morning after arriving at Sydney the night before. The cafe has a nice set up although it's winter I opted to sit outside. Waitress came by immediately & asked if we wanted coffee. She took her time to explain the difference between the various types in comparison to american coffee. We also ordered our breakfast shortly after. It arrived promptly & was clean & fresh we had the beet salad & a salmon dill picklet. I found everyone here uber friendly & I enjoyed my meal, I would definitely recommend this place. read more

I've been on a very long trip basically around the world. Upon arriving in Sydney in the early morning hours, he first and only thing I wanted was breakfast. My hotel recommended I check out Tigerbakers, and I couldn't have been happier. In the 4 days I spent in Sydney, I ate three breakfasts here. The Tiger Breakfast is awesome. It's like a full "English" breakfast with great bacon and sausage and eggs any style. Staff were nice, polite, and responsive. I definitely had worse food at higher prices in other restaurants in this neighborhood. This is the only one that was good enough for repeat visits. If I ever find myself on the other side of the world again, I know where to get breakfast. read more

Came here for their all-day breakfasts at 10am and it was packed! Coffee was delicious and the poached eggs on beetroot and cured salmon was excellent. Would've loved the beetroot to be a bit cooked and not so crunchy, but it wasn't bad. We caught a seat outside which was lovely on a nice day. Inside is a bit dim and bar like - small venue in general. read more

"TigerBakers" Lacks the roar of a tiger. Total opposite dining experience to other reviewers, there is no way it matched up to previous reviews on my visit. Water CUPS, had black coffee frack in them or something. Asked to change, and given a cup back assured, it was clean but still had something in there. So that's why you have a shirt I guess. Next ...ordered tea and coffee, white interior and rimmed tea cup (same as picture on review page) black mark on rim, so I cleaned it partly before waitress came back and I asked for it to be changed. Coffee and tea served in cups and saucers that were dirty and full of water marks, WTF this is hospitality 101 clean and dry or even POLISH tableware. Ordered the Tiger Breakfast and a Bacon and Egg roll. Asked for the eggs to be over easy or simply turned and the eye sealed. Cutlery brought to the table and assured utensils were clean and were only water marked. Received the order and, egg under cooked on both meals, sausage was grey on the outside like par blanched or old and the inside was pink. Worst breakfast so far not worth the $32.00. Not a Tiger Breakfast more like a Dog's Breakfast. Went to pick up the salt shaker and it flew out of my fingers, it was covered in grease. I just cleaned it off myself as it was less effort than to complain to staff. In short, avoid the place like a winning ticket in a "gastro" lottery. FOOD: DISGUSTING: Customer Service. VERY POOR Tableware: Take your own disposable, it is safer. Location: Nice to sit outside on a fine day and watch the day go by. I recommend the white restaurant opposite "Tropicana", great service and food was commendable. read more

The food here is good but the wait staff will ruin your day. I just can't get over how poorly we were treated this morning at breakfast, I realise it's a busy time but 40 minutes for coffees?? When I tried to get the waitress' attention she actually walked right past us as she rolled her eyes!! I'm so tired of feeling like a child when going to Sydney restaurants and cafes, it's a huge problem throughout the city but this takes the cake. I won't come back despite the decent food. Don't let them get away with such terrible service!! Demand better, Sydney! read more

Been here twice for breakfast - service was particularly sour on both occasions but the food was quite decent the first time round (~6 months ago) so gave it another shot. Portions have shrunk since the first time. Tiger's breakfast was very standard and dining companion received 3 rather miniature pikelets as his 'ricotta hotcakes'. Not worth returning for. read more

I went here for lunch on the suggestion of the hotel desk at Morgans also on Victoria Street in Darlinghurst. Its advertised as famous for breakfast but my partner and I had lunch. I had a Thai spicy Chicken salad and my partner had a Tiger Burger. Simple food cooked to perfection. We had a bottle of Sauv Blanc and 2 delicious coffees. Service was good and ambiance bohemian chic. Quite busy we went on a Monday. Highly Recomend read more

Very cute cafe with delicious brunch! I ordered the vegetarian breakfast, despite not being a veggie myself, and loved it! It's fairly expensive, so not a regular brunch place at all, but worth trying out. read more
